Preferences only save when changed in last instance to close
Another bug I found that should be an easy fix. The problem occurs if I open multiple instances and change any of the preferences in one of the instances. Those changes only are only saved when that instance is the last instance to be closed. So the last instance to be closed will define the preferences for all future PDFs to be opened. It should probably be that the last time preferences were changed should define how all future PDF documents are opened. Forgot to add that I am using 2.0 build 195

Re: Preferences only save when changed in last instance to c
HI lgitlitz,
you are right that the settings are saved when the last instance of the Viewer is closed. Because each instance is storing it's own "temporary" settings and it doesn't save them until all instances are closed as you point out it is the last instance that counts.
I'm not sure if this behaviour can/should be changed. I'll ask the development team for their thoughts on this.
regards

Hi, lgitlitz.
This behavior cannot be changed currently. But in the new version V3 this problem with multiple instances will be solved. Wait for new version...
